A brilliant rendition!

This hits all the right spots high and low. Jack Nicholson is unmistakably himself and brings these characters to life with a distinct and memorable voice all their own. Bobby McFerrin blazes new ground when it comes to pleasing human sounds. His astounding range and impeccable arrangement bring far more than support and Foley arts to the production. Bobby McFerrin makes your mind see the sounds and actions Jack Nicholson weaves through the telling of a classic tale.

This is a work of art that will stay with you for life and hearing it as a child will only be made better by sharing it with your own children... make that all children. As a child myself, a man, a father and now a grandfather, I recommend this with a glad heart and a smile.
